Today, world-renowned composer, producer and rock icon YOSHIKI (X Japan) debuts a music video he directed, starring the cast of Bride Hard: Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, Colleen Camp, Gigi Zumbado and Academy Award winner Da’vine Joy Randolph.

The video features “Butterfly (Acoustic Version),” the latest single from rising J-Pop sensation Bi-Ray, available to stream today – Listen Here. The original version of “Butterfly” soared to #1 on YouTube (9M+ views) and the iTunes Pop Chart in Japan and was also featured in the trailer for the summer action-comedy Bride Hard.

The song showcases Bi-Ray’s stunning vocals and collective depth. The group made their U.S. debut earlier this year with a powerful performance of the national anthem at Dodger Stadium during Japanese Heritage Night. Bi-ray’s four members—Emi, Hinata, Cocomi, and Michelle—were personally handpicked by YOSHIKI.

YOSHIKI shares, “The moment I heard their voices, I knew they were something extraordinary. Each member has a unique sound and together they’re a force ready to change the future of J-Pop.

“Butterfly (Acoustic Version)” is a slow-burning, emotionally resonant ballad that begins with stripped-down instrumentation before building into a lush, cinematic arrangement. Released globally via Melodee with U.S. distribution by Virgin Music Group, the track highlights each member’s unique vocal identity. With origins in Japan, Canada, Russia and the Philippines, 美麗-Bi-Ray embodies a new era of multicultural J-pop, delivering a unified and heartfelt performance.

The accompanying music video, directed by YOSHIKI, opens with the cast of Bride Hard prepping the group for stardom, leading into a stylish and energetic performance that blends Bi-Ray’s bold fashion, colorful visuals and Bi-Ray’s undeniable talent.
